We picked 125 today out of 2 spots. The first got hit by someone else and was picked pretty clean. My other spot was spread out and we covered a lot of ground. Several were drying out already and at least 2 crumbled as soon as we touched them. I did notice that trillums were flowering around where we found the majority of the morels. In others areas the trillums were just starting to come up where we found few morels. Not sure if there is a correlation with ground temps or not.

We picked 81 today. It was a bust at the first spot, the second was just a few babies and at the third we covered a lot of ground because they were so spread out. I picked 1 that was in full sun and the edges were dry. Everything is southern exposure.

Well our lilacs were just starting to bud out yesterday and I was thinking we should go take a peek today. Unfortunately we got 2 inches of snow overnight and it's still coming down! I'm pretty sure Hubbard county will have to wait at least a week to ten days with the temps forecast.

I am in the market for a new boat. I have not decided 100% on a brand but I am leaning towards an Alumacraft fitted with a Yamaha or an Evinrude. I would also be looking at a Crestliner but I have never had a Mercury motor. I am looking for a rig about 17 feet long and a 90 HP in 4 stroke. Several years ago if you bought a Crestliner it left the factory with a Mercury pre-rig and you had to purchase a pre-rig in the brand of motor you wanted for extra, not sure if it is still that way but if it is I really do not want the extra cost or hassle. Are there any issues with Mercury motors? Are they as quiet as the Yamaha and Evinrudes? Is the fuel economy comparable? I do understand that the Evinrudes are 2 strokes. I have also heard that the Suzuki's have been pretty good, super quiet and good economy. Thanks in advance for any input!

I have a 2003 FX4 with 180,000+ on it. It is the 2 valve motor. I had to replace the motor about 14 months after I bought it because of a bad rebuild before I bought it, the oil pump went out and they drove it too long. The line bore was out. There is no plug trouble with this motor. I have replaced the coil packs and installed new bulbs on it, that is it besides the motor.

I saw the most deer that I have ever seen in stand in 184. Now don't get excited, I only saw 6. I harvested a large doe early Saturday afternoon and called it a day. I heard 3 deer Sunday but that was it.
